Interesting theory. So everyone gets knocked off his horse.
You make God sound somewhat vain. I don't think that was your intent. God will get His glory, He doesn't covet it.
I'm not saying it happens all the time, on the contrary. But is it possible God could do this?
This is like saying, "if with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE, then is it possible for God to sin?
I'm afraid I don't follow. You think that God, by His nature, has to make Himself known by name as you describe above? Again, an interesting theory, but I don't agree.
Remember when God came as the still small voice, and not in the fire and earthquake, etc.? Sometimes God knocks you off your horse, other times He is more subtle.

Are you His? What is His name?

Friend, many are called but few are chosen. Many know what they are called to do but do not yield and do it. To those that yield and experience the mighty moving of God in their lives ... well, yes it is a bit of "knocked off your horse" experience.

Covet? No. Desire? Yes. God is also a jealous God.
Isa.42:8
I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

There is much we don't agree on. However, do you know of any artist that doesn't identify his work? How much more the God of all creation? He will always leave his imprint on His work.

Think of it this way Dave ... when you met your lovely wife, ... was it important to you that, ... at some point, she knew your name ?
